Retrofit of Autohold

[dany2k]

Hi guys,
A return to the forum after several years away. I’m after somebody to supply and fit Autohold to my 2016 A4 Avant. The car’s been specced with seemingly everything under the sun but that; I’m missing it dreadfully following coming from a 2017 Tiguan. I’m based in West Yorkshire.

Thanks!

If the car supports it, does it have hill hold already?

Hi Nigel,
I’ve just taken it for a quick spin to check, it does seem to have it: brake to a stop on a hill and the A with a circle around it comes up and it stops for 3 seconds or so. I can PM you my vin if it helps?

I retrofitted this, bought button of eBay and cable of kufatec, then just activated it with obd11. Done

It really is as simple as that, I just can’t seem to find anyone locally who has the confidence to take that approach! I wouldn’t mind doing it myself, just more comfortable with electrics in the home than the car.

I recommend 125 coding who are in Dewsbury who have helped me with all my retrofits. Reasonably priced, very knowledgeable and friendly enthusiasts specialising in Audi/Vag.

They helped me with my S4 seats retrofit amongst other things cause I bought them in West yorks.

If anyone ever finds themselves in my position, I ended up buying the kit from Kufatec for just over £135 and had it coded fitter and coded for £70 by a mobile autoelectrician. Job done, hope it gives others some confidence to go ahead with it if needed!
